"Even As Thy Soul Prospers" [Sea 3 / Ep 10]

from Deeper In The Word · host Reverend Adrian L Robinson II

Question:  do you think God WANTS you to be rich and in good health?  Perhaps you follow, listen to and believe some of these preachers out here – some famous, most on television - who tell you that God DOES want you to be healthy and wealthy, AND that all you have to do is ask God for whatever you want, and He’ll just GRANT IT, like some cosmic genie?   Well, if you answered “yes” to any of those questions….what if I told you that ANY PREACHER WHO TOLD YOU THOSE THINGS IS LYING TO YOU?   Yes, friends, once again it’s ON….because THIS episode we tackle THE BIG ONE – that is, arguably the biggest, most controversial topic within the faith community today, and that’s the proliferation of The Prosperity Gospel, or prosperity preaching, or “name it and claim it”, or the Word of Faith Movement, to name but a few of its identifying titles.   Join RevRob as he explores this highly-divisive phenomenon in depth, including a discussion on the history of where it came from and how it started; an examination on how it TWISTS the Word of God for promoting personal agendas; and a measured look at WHY this doctrine is so effective within certain church communities…..ALL without EVER calling out ANY names or pointing fingers at anyone.   Come learn about the tacit pitfalls of prosperity preaching on the Believing populace!
